"Œuvres complètes de Guy de Maupassant - volume 07" by Guy de Maupassant is a collection of short stories written in the late 19th century. This volume includes several notable works, such as "Clair de Lune," "L'Enfant," "Un Coup d'Etat," and other pieces, showcasing Maupassant's keen insights into human emotions and societal themes. The stories often delve into the complexities of relationships, personal conflicts, and the nature of love, highlighting both the beauty and tragedy of life. At the start of "Clair de Lune," we are introduced to Abbé Marignan, a deeply religious yet fanatical priest who grapples with his disdain for women while displaying an obsessive quest for understanding God's intentions. He is initially preoccupied with the purity of his niece and is horrified to learn of her romantic involvement, leading him into a turbulent mix of moral outrage and introspection. As he steps outside on a beautiful moonlit night, he is captivated by the enchanting scene before him, which stirs a profound emotional response, ultimately challenging his rigid beliefs about love and the divine. This opening portion sets the stage for a narrative that promises to explore the conflict between duty and desire, emphasizing the enchanting power of nature as it reflects human complexities.
